If there is one thing that I so damn good at, it would be slipping into non-existance and cribbing about it. Ever so often, I get excited with some new found, fun filled change in the droning monotony of my life. But then, even before I realise, I would be fast letting things settle down with those powdery cobwebs over hanging.
It is indeed an oxymoronic and highly ironic paradox (Ahh … it feels a bit reliving after using some stupid bombastic word.) On one hand, I want to lead a very settled life, with every day, every hour planed neatly and lived most appropriately. So that I can get to bed at night, flash through the day's happenings and feel warm and smug. And on the other hand, I want every moment of my life to be a thrilling surprise faced with all the childish elements of splendid anticipation, little agonies and wizening mishaps. I can then hold the memory of every moment like a post card picture out of my shoe box and reflect on all the fun that filled that second.
Perhaps, I am not alone. Somehow I have this feeling that many suffer from the same disorder. Whatever! So … Here I am after a short indulgence with an orderly life, hoping to spin it out of control like a tossed pebble over the pool. For many, blogging has been a means of recording the event in their filmy lives. Sadly, they compare it to diary keeping. Tipping the scales right over, I think of blogging as kinks of excitement in an otherwise very surreal and normal life that I lead. Guess that explains why I am unable to do this very periodically. Boy! Does this give me the kicks! And so, when ever I'm most desperately looking to dash my head into a wall of thrill, I turn to blogging!
Now that I have amply excused myself with utterly contorted reasons, let me get to buissness. Oh!... what a dog I am. A few weeks back there was this very sweet person, Manoj, who so graciously chose to crown my corner coffee table with its first blogging award, so rightly termed "The Freedom and Independent award". Thanks for that Manoj. Wish I learn from you to be more earnest in blogging. And oh!... you have an amazing blog, lots of insightful thoughts and interesting outlooks. The good souled angle that I am, I am impelled by my divine insticts to spread joy and glory all arround. So, with that said, here are a list of buddies and fav blogs to whom I humbly pass on the baton of "The Freedom and Independent award". Cheers buddies ... have always loved reading your bloggings.
With Love to:
- Puppy's rewind button - Though he writes his posts sitting next to his wife ... it makes you feel as if she writes half of it. I kinda like the holiday accounts and most of all the sweet recounts of all the great-to-remember foolish things that he does to make his simple life all the more interesting.
- Arv's wall - Here is some one I can hardly belive I knew before he started blogging! He's so prompt and perhaps the Elvis Presley of the blogging kingdom. With an empire of fans and friends Arv has a world of his own, for the simple reason he provides the most honest window to a dude's life!
- Bridget Jones reincarnate - I often wonder while reading her post whether I am talking to a long time friend in person. Her words are so lively and above all she is gifted with a style that would leave Ms.Carrie Bradshaw of Sex and The City gasping for her damn breath.
